Instructions
Begin by rinsing all produce in cold water to remove any dirt or residue. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl.
Finely slice the red onion into thin strips and add to the bowl with the other vegetables.
Roughly chop the parsley and mint. Add the fresh herbs to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients, ensuring even distribution of the dressing.
Crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle it over the top of the salad just before serving.
Serve the salad immediately for a refreshing and flavorful dish.
